Boundaries

A boundless sky: Blue – as far as the eye can see and as high as the mind can travel after it. Where does something begin and where does something end? Our sense of sight needs what is clearly distinct from each other. It takes care, so to speak, of what separates and of the clear drawing of boundaries.

What is “yours” and what is “mine”? We humans consist of communication – how can I tell how far we meet, overlap, interact. Accepting thoughts and also distributing them. Influence each other. Touching each other. And yet we need boundaries so as not to dissolve and get lost in the expansion. Identity wants permeable protective walls, however luminous they may be.
